The Art Of Non-Conformity

There are occasions when you desperately want a person to succeed. I do not know Chris Guillebeau, except through the e-mail updates I receive from his blog. As you read what he writes, he comes across as a genuine person. That to me is a sufficient enough reason for me to want him to succeed.

I would, therefore, very strongly recommend visiting his blog, The Art of Non-Conformity and subscribe to the updates. I also recommend that you read his manifesto 279 Days to Overnight Success. It lays down a (one of many) path to become a full-time blogger / writer.

What I find inspiring is that he manages to get enough from his on-line business to be able to pursue his dream of visiting all the countries in the world.
Actually I envy him.

Pssst! He does not know that I am endorsing him.

The Top 25 Blogs as per Time

Ancient Indian wisdom has always passed from one generation to another by the way of what is called the Guru-Shishya parampara (Guru = teacher, Shishya = pupil, parampara = tradition). The renaissance period also saw something similar. Young artists would take up apprenticeship under a master. In fact art can only be learned by sitting at the feet of the guru.

Now, if you consider Blogging to be an art, and you wish to look for a guru, look no further than the list of 25 top blogs published by Time.
My advise: Read each one of these blogs and internalise.

My question: Do you agree with the list?
